There and Back Again - Let it Begin

I just watched the first video blog from Peter Jackson on the filming of The Hobbit. Watching him walk around familiar sets and talking about the new movie has set my imagination soaring. That wonderful feeling I had over ten years ago when I started following and waiting for The Fellowship of the Ring is back again and I couldn't be happier. In an age of social media and sharing, Mr. Jackson is spot on with his decision to keep the fans updated directly from the source and to whet our appetites with tantalizing tidbits of scenery, costumes, and props.

For gamers and hobbyists like myself, the updates can serve an additional purpose.... inspiration. Those fond memories of the halcyon days of LotR have returned with just one teaser video. Additional updates are sure to have a profound effect on the direction of my gaming/hobby interests.

What is Blackwarden anyhow?

Blackwarden is the fictional name, or family of names rather, that inhabit my imagination in all its various forms. From computer games and RPGs to my pirate personae and creative writing, this line of fictional heroes populate my strange and unusual pastimes. Since this blog is the sum of their story, it's only proper that the name serves as the title.

Come share their adventures with me.

A Bit About Me

Normal life. Normal job. Not so normal hobbies. This is a blog that allows me to showcase some of my unusual pastimes.
